Ok, for those who don't know me very well, I absolutely LOVE to read. All types of genres. So, I just chose a couple to tell you about. I have a romance for the mushy ones of you, and an adventure for those willing to take a chance.
Just Beyond the Clouds by Karen Kingsbury
Ok, I am not a romance novel person, but this novel captured my attention right from the start. This is the second in the Cody Gunner series. In Just Beyond the Clouds, Cody Gunner is still hurting after the death of his wife. Now his brother, Carl Joseph, who has Down ’s syndrome is trying to become independent. As Cody fights this change with his brother, the teacher of Carl Joseph, Elle, fights harder for his independence. The two are at odds until they both realize the connection they share. As Cody and Elle battle it out, Cody realizes this is the one woman who can teach him to love again, and see the hope Just Beyond the Clouds.
I cried, laughed, and found myself looking for a reason to sit down and read. If you like Nicolas Sparks type books; Karen Kingsbury is the Christian version of Nicolas Sparks. This book will not disappoint the romance reader.
Babylon Rising by Tim LaHaye and Greg Dinallo
This is the first in an installment of books by the creator of the Left Behind series. This series focuses on Bible prophecies that are not covered in the Left Behind books. Michael Murphy is a Biblical archaeologist teaching at a college in North Carolina. As a secret benefactor leads him to amazing Biblical finds, the danger increases—for Michael Murphy as well as those around him. Murphy seems to always end up fighting for his life. It is the age old good vs. evil, and in this case, God vs. Satan. Michael Murphy shows us that courage and truth will triumph through any test we are given in our lives.
This book is the equivalent of a Christian Indiana Jones. I read through this book in two days and ran to the library for the next one in the series. If you like action, this is THE book for you!!
If you have a book you would like me to review, please let me know. I will be doing these every few weeks. Now, go get a book and read!!! (Just don't forget to read your Bible.)
